Paid on the Website — But the App Still Shows a Free Account?

You completed the payment on the website.

Your card was charged.

You received the receipt.

Everything looks successful.

But when you open the app — it still says “Free Plan.”

No premium badge.

No unlocked features.

No subscription history.

This usually means the purchase is valid — but not recognized inside the app environment.


Why Website Payments Don’t Appear in the App

  • Website and app subscriptions run on separate billing systems
  • The app may rely on App Store / Google Play verification
  • Cross-platform sync may be delayed
  • You may be logged into a different account inside the app

Many platforms separate direct web billing from in-app purchases.


Common Signs of Platform Mismatch

  • Website shows active subscription
  • App shows Free or Basic plan
  • Premium features work on desktop but not mobile
  • Upgrade prompts appear inside the app

This confirms the subscription exists — but isn’t linked in-app.


How to Fix the Issue

  • Log out and log back into the app
  • Ensure the same email/account is used
  • Restore purchases inside app settings
  • Clear app cache or reinstall if needed

Most sync issues resolve after account reauthentication.


When to Contact Support

  • Subscription active on web but locked in app after 24 hours
  • Restore purchase fails
  • Multiple accounts may exist

Provide receipt ID and billing email for faster resolution.

Do not repurchase inside the app — this can create duplicate charges.
